IMPROVEMENT IN SUSPENSlON-RiNGS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 123,553, dated February 13, 1872.

The object of my invention is to produce suspension-rin gs for the purpose of attaching the same to cards, papers, labels, or samples, by which the same can be'hung up or fastened to other goods in a more convenient, more secure, and cheaper manner than heretofore.

Figure I is a front \ilW of my invention. Fig. ll is a side view of the same.

In order to enable those skilled in the art to produce my improved suspension-rings, I shall proceed to describe the mode in which they are manufactured.

I cut from a light brass wire a number of pieces of the same length. By the use of a pair of pliers i make a true circle, A, in the middle of the wire, and straighten out the ends of the wire B B parallel to each other. By the plier I form on the end of one of the wire ends a circular eye, 0 on the end of the other a short bend, D, under a right angle. Thus my improved suspension-rings are easily and rapidly manufactured by the aid only of a pair of pliers in any skilled workmans hands. Of course, suitable machinery may be employed for the same purpose.

For the purpose of attaching my improved suspension-rill gs anywhere desired I merely thrust the short bend 1) into the card, label, or sample, it the fabric will allow it; it not, I

perforate the same with aknit'e, needle, or any 7 tool convenient at hand. I then insert the short bend D into the eye 0 and press the end of the bend down parallel to the wire B. llhus my improved suspension-ring is securely fastened and locked.

Having thus fully described and specified.
